Ranchero Breakfast Burrito

8 large eggs
1/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 jalapeño peppers, seeded and finely chopped
1 tablespoon butter
6 slices cheddar cheese
6 large flour tortillas
2 tomatoes, diced
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

1. In a small mixing bowl beat together eggs, hot sauce, salt and pepper; stir in jalapeño peppers.
2. In medium non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, melt butter. Pour in egg mixture and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring with a spatula, until large, soft, moist curls form and no visible liquid egg remains.
3. For each burrito, place one cheese slice on bottom third of a tortilla. Top with some of the egg mixture, tomato and cilantro. Roll up tortilla, tucking ends under. Place on microwave-safe plate and microwave, one at a time, on HIGH (100%) 1 minute or until hot. Serve with additional hot sauce.

Makes 6 servings.

Note: Or place burritos on baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 7 to 10 minutes or until hot.
